chemicals out of plumbing
systems. Additionally, SharkBite
PE-RT Pipe eliminates the
need for open ames in the
house that could be a potential
re hazard. There is no risk of
copper traces in water from

Proven and Guaranteed
SharkBite has a proven record
of manufacturing Polyethylene
Pipe for the last 35 years with
over 12 Billion feet of Pipe
installed worldwide.
Flexibility
Able to bend pipe around
corners which removes the
need for 45° or 90° elbows in
certain situations. SharkBite's
new coiling process increases
the exibility of our coiled pipe
even more. SharkBite PE-RT
Pipe has superior exibility
which makes it compatible with
barb, expansion, and push-to-
connect ttings.
Cost Eective
SharkBite PE-RT Pipe is
substantially more cost eective
than Copper pipe–SharkBite
PE-RT Pipe costs a third of the
price of Copper. SharkBite PE-RT
Pipe is a xed cost as prices don’t
uctuate daily like Copper pipe.
Versatile
SharkBite PE-RT Pipe can
be installed in dry or wet
conditions. SharkBite PE-RT
Pipe can lend itself to many
applications due to its physical
properties of exibility, reliability
and installation ease such as
hydronic heating, re protection,
etc.
Chlorine Resistance
SharkBite PE-RT Pipe is tested
to the highest level of chlorine
resistance standards, testing at
100% chlorine at 140°F.
Freeze Resistant
SharkBite PE-RT systems are
less susceptible to burst in
freezing conditions due to the
pipe’s ability to expand. The
outside temperature does not
aect installation of SharkBite
PE-RT pipe and ttings and can
be pressure tested immediately
once all connections are made.
